On the upcoming edition of Exploration, Dr. Charles Seife sits down with Michio Kaku to analyze the role of fusion, and if it can solve our energy crisis. Then, Dr. Neil Seife is on the program to discuss how humans evolved from fish.About the guests:

Another famous piece from Charles Seife is a book called “Proofiness: How You’re Being Fooled By the Numbers”. In this book, Seife focuses on how some methods propaganda are now using numbers worded in a such a way that they confuse people and can be misinterpreted. This misinterpretation can cause potential consumers to find this “product” appealing even though what they see, hear, or read may not be true. Seife then goes into further detail about today’s society and how easily people are tricked into believing in propaganda and how easily that propaganda is “shaping” today’s society.

Throughout his career, Charles Seife has written many book reviews. Specifically, he reviews books which focus on mathematics. One book, called “Mathematics Elsewhere”, was reviewed by Charles Seife and then criticized for its information. In this specific review Seife points out that there are many different interpretaions of the Mayan Calendar, and that, when looked at from a mathematical standpoint, the calendar was created before “Leap Year” which means the supposed apocalypse would have come and gone years ago. Another review written by Seife, was that of a book called “The Science of “Disestimation””. According to Seife, this book conducted a study to see how much people knew about religion. This study was conducted to see whether or not “religious” or “non-religious” people knew more about the subject. The study claimed that, out of a total of 32 points, atheists and agnostics scored, on average, 4.9 points higher than the supposed “religious” people. What this author failed to point out and emphasize, according to Seife, was that the atheists and agnostics group only made up 212 people out of the total 3412 in the sample. Mathematically, there are hundreds of possible reasons for this 4.9 point difference, but whether or not it is a significant difference cannot be determined due to the sample size. Another flaw pointed out by Seife is that the author of “The Science of “Dissestimation”” left out entire groups of people from the population, as well as combining different groups together (such as Catholics, Protestants, Mennonites, Baptists, etc.).
